Description

The controlling method of homogeneous charging compressing ignition motor and this motor
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of homogeneous charging compressing ignition motor (hcci engine).In hcci engine of the present invention, combustion mode can be switched between homogeneous charging compression and combustion (HCCI burning) and spark ignition combustion (SI burning).

In recent years, homogeneous charging compressing ignition (HCCI) motor has been caused attention, and this motor is carried out various researchs.Can obtain good fuel economy and the thermal efficiency and low emission from hcci engine.In the hcci engine of some type, fuel is directly injected in the firing chamber during intake stroke.That is, have only air to be sucked firing chamber and the fuel very first time and air mixing the firing chamber from gas-entered passageway.Yet, in most of hcci engines, fuel in gas-entered passageway and air mixing so that produce mixed gas.This mixed gas is supplied to the firing chamber from gas-entered passageway.
Along with piston rises when the compression stroke of motor, the temperature that is contained in the mixed gas of inside, firing chamber increases and pressure raises, and makes that mixed gas is spontaneous to light.An obstacle that the actual use of hcci engine input need will be overcome is that to allow homogeneous charging compressing ignition (HCCI) burning to be stabilized the engine running scope of control still narrow.In order to overcome this obstacle, tend in stationary engine, carry out the HCCI burning, normally used operating range is narrow in the stationary engine, for example is used for the gas engine of GHP (gas-fired heat pump).
In the real-world operation of hcci engine, often use engine low rotation speed scope, medium speed scope, low-load range and middle load range.The running state of motor of having given chapter and verse is switched combustion mode between HCCI combustion range and spark ignition (SI) combustion range.Spark ignition (SI) burning is carried out in high engine speed range, extremely low load range and high-load range.
Japanese laid-open patent communique No.2007-16685 discloses a kind of controlling method, and wherein this method switches to the HCCI burning from spark ignition combustion, increases the internal EGR amount when making air fuel ratio rarer.When switching to from spark ignition combustion HCCI when burning, when combustion mode still is in spark ignition combustion, increase to the air inflow of motor, thereby make air fuel ratio rarer.When making air fuel ratio thinning, the internal EGR amount increases.Thereafter, spark ignition combustion switches to the HCCI burning via stratified mixture combustion.
According to the controlling method of above-mentioned communique, when combustion mode still is in spark ignition combustion, that is, when still being difficult to carry out the HCCI burning, produce internal EGR gas.Because internal EGR gas has high temperature, so spark ignition combustion and HCCI burning can be carried out simultaneously.This can cause significant torque ripple.
Further, in the controlling method of this communique, the temporary transient stratified-charge combustion of carrying out when switching to the HCCI burning from spark ignition combustion.Air fuel ratio is rarer to have increased throttle opening effectively with the flammable state lower leaf charge combustion that improves spark ignition combustion making.Yet stratified-charge combustion need directly inject fuel into " the in-cylinder injection device " in the firing chamber.That is the inner cylinder direct injection system need comprise the in-cylinder injection device of inject high pressure fuel.Above-mentioned communique thereby have manufacture cost and the shortcoming of power loss aspect.Further, the part advantage that stratified-charge combustion has been eliminated the HCCI burning, the i.e. reduction of the raising of fuel economy and discharging are carried out in transition.

Shown in Fig. 3 (a), ECU5 switches to second air inlet lift amount IL2 with full admission lift amount IL from the first air inlet lift amount IL1 at time point t1 place.Fig. 4 B illustrate intake valve 11v and then switch after or the state after the time point t1 and then.In other words, Fig. 4 B illustrates and then described full admission lift amount IL and switches to the state after the second air inlet lift amount IL2 of solid line representative from the first air inlet lift amount IL1 of with dashed lines representative.Air inlet variable valve actuator for air 11a switches to described air inlet high-lift cam so that switch full admission lift amount IL with intake cam 11c from the low lift cams of described air inlet.Therefore, full admission lift amount IL reduces, and the valve duration of intake valve reduces.The minimizing of the valve duration of described intake valve has changed IO Intake Valve Opens/close timing.In other words, timing ITopn delay is opened in air inlet.ECU5 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 with full admission lift amount IL from the first air inlet lift amount IL1, makes air inlet open timing ITopn and postpones with respect to exhaust top dead center TDC.
Shown in Fig. 3 (d), ECU 5 switches to second exhaust lift amount EL2 with maximum exhaust lift amount EL from the first exhaust lift amount EL1 at time point t3 place.That is prior to switching to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 at time point t3 place from the first exhaust lift amount EL1, ECU 5 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 at time point t1 place from the first air inlet lift amount IL1.
In the present embodiment, ECU 5 opens air inlet at time point t1 place timing ITopn and is set at reference to air inlet and opens timing ITopn0.That is air inlet is opened timing ITopn and and then is set at after the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 with reference to air inlet unlatching timing ITopn0.
Shown in Fig. 4 B, when when the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2, ECU 5 opens timing ITopn with respect to exhaust top dead center TDC retarded admission.Thus, when being in negative pressure, the inside of firing chamber 10 begins air inlet.This causes air inlet to spray in the firing chamber 10.Correspondingly, strengthen the adiabatic compression effect of firing chamber 10, made the temperature of firing chamber 10 be able to effective rising.Timing ITopn is called intake valve 11v with respect to the delay of exhaust top dead center TDC delay unlatching is opened in air inlet.Thereby carry out HCCI burning, and no longer need the spark ignition of spark plug 60c in reliable mode.ECU 5 is in the spark ignition that stops spark plug 60c when the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2.That is ECU5 switches to the HCCI burning with combustion mode from spark ignition combustion when switching intake valve 11v.
Because the delay of timing ITopn with respect to exhaust top dead center TDC opened in air inlet, so the adiabatic compression effect makes it possible to realize the HCCI burning.Thereby ECU 5 beginnings produce internal EGR amount Qegr in the HCCI burning.Thus, prevent that ECU 5 beginnings from for example producing internal EGR amount Qegr under the state of HCCI burning difficulty therein.That is ECU 5 can prevent from wherein to carry out simultaneously the appearance of the state of spark ignition combustion and HCCI burning.Therefore, shown in the solid line among Fig. 3 (f), prevent that the torque T of hcci engine 1 from changing suddenly.
Dotted line among Fig. 3 (f) is represented the torque curve of first comparative examples.First comparative examples is meant wherein to carry out simultaneously from the first air inlet lift amount IL1 and switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 and switch to the situation of the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1.That is, in first comparative examples, when switching to the HCCI burning from spark ignition combustion, when switching to the second exhaust lift amount EL2, the first exhaust lift amount EL1 producing the internal EGR amount.That is in first comparative examples, internal EGR amount Qegr produces when the first intake valve aperture TA1.In first comparative examples, moment of torsion is because air inflow little and unexpected variation about internal EGR amount Qegr.That is in first comparative examples, torque T temporarily and significantly reduces shown in the dotted line among Fig. 3 (f).
In time period from time point t2 to time point t4, ECU 5 increases to the second throttle opening TA2 with throttle opening from first segment valve opening TA1 shown in Fig. 3 (b), and shown in Fig. 3 (c) fuel duty F is reduced to the second fuel duty F2 from the first fuel duty F1 simultaneously.
That is ECU 5 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 at time point t1 place from the first air inlet lift amount IL1, thereby combustion mode is switched to the HCCI burning from spark ignition combustion.Thereafter, after time point t2 and time point t2, ECU 5 control throttle opening TA and fuel duty F.At time point t3 place, ECU 5 switches to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1, makes exc. timing ETcls postpone with respect to reference exc. timing ETcls0.Thus, set up under lap.
Fig. 6 illustrates second comparative examples.In second comparative examples, in burn cycle, the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 at time point t1.In next burn cycle, exc. timing ETcls switches to reference to exc. timing ETcls0.The pivotal axis of Fig. 6 is represented in-cylinder pressure P, perhaps the pressure in the firing chamber when this under lap is set up.The horizontal axis signature song Shaft angle of Fig. 6.The zero degree of described crank angle is represented exhaust top dead center TDC.In second comparative examples, premature ignition can take place.
Fig. 6 illustrates the P of in-cylinder pressure separately in final spark ignition combustion circulation, HCCI circulation, the 2nd HCCI circulation, the 3rd HCCI circulation and the 4th HCCI circulation.Final spark ignition combustion circulation is meant the final burn cycle of spark ignition when spark ignition combustion switches to the HCCI burning.The one HCCI circulation is meant and follows described final spark ignition combustion circuit burn cycle closely.That is HCCI circulation is meant first burn cycle of HCCI burning after the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2.The 2nd HCCI circulation is meant the burn cycle that follows a HCCI burn cycle closely.In second comparative examples, exc. timing ETcls switched to reference to exc. timing ETcls0 in the 2nd HCCI cycle period.That is, set in the 2nd HCCI cycle period with reference to internal EGR amount Qegr0.
As shown in Figure 6, near the in-cylinder pressure P the exhaust top dead center TDC increases continuously through final spark ignition combustion circulation, HCCI circulation, the 2nd HCCI circulation, the 3rd HCCI circulation and the 4th HCCI circulation in second comparative examples.This is because circulate the deficiency so air inflow becomes owing to carry out first to fourth HCCI under the situation that intake valve aperture TA is maintained the first intake valve aperture TA1.This has reduced moment of torsion.That is, in second comparative examples shown in Figure 6, produce in the burn cycle of internal EGR gas after and then the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 that its temperature has increased by the adiabatic compression effect owing to HCCI burning.Thereby, shown in the regional AA of the dotted line limit among Fig. 6, near excessive increase exhaust top dead center TDC in second to the 4th HCCI circulation of the temperature in the firing chamber 10.This has increased the probability of premature ignition and detonation.
In order to solve problem shown in Figure 6, the ECU 5 of present embodiment is switching to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1 after the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2, thereby has postponed exc. timing ETcls with respect to reference exc. timing ETcls0.Thus, controlled internal EGR amount Qegr in reliable mode.Thereby, according to present embodiment, prevented that the temperature in the firing chamber 10 from excessively increasing after and then the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2.Further, prevented fuel duty F deficiency.
In time period from time point t2 to time point t4, ECU 5 increases to the second intake valve aperture TA2 with the intake valve aperture from first segment valve opening TA1 shown in Fig. 3 (b), and shown in Fig. 3 (c) fuel duty F is reduced to the second fuel duty F2 from the first fuel duty F1 simultaneously.Thus, the fuel in the firing chamber 10 is thinning gradually.Therefore, when excessively heating up in suppressing firing chamber 10, motor 1 is changed to the steady running of HCCI burning.Further suppressed to switch to torque ripple in time period of HCCI burning at spark ignition combustion.
Shown in Fig. 3 (d), ECU 5 switches to second exhaust lift amount EL2 with maximum exhaust lift amount EL from the first exhaust lift amount EL1 at time point t3 place.In the present embodiment, ECU 5 switches to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1 shown in Fig. 5 A, makes exc. timing ETcls postpone with respect to reference exc. timing ETcls0.Thus, in firing chamber 10, produce internal EGR amount Qegr.Thereby, and then appear at internal EGR amount Qegr in the firing chamber 10 after the time point t3 less than reference internal EGR amount Qegr0.This has suppressed excessively to heat up in the firing chamber 10.
The dotted line representative that length among Fig. 5 A replaces is with reference to exc. timing ETcls0.With reference to exc. timing ETcls0 in advance with respect to exhaust top dead center TDC.The exc. timing ETcls corresponding with the second exhaust lift amount EL2 with respect to exhaust top dead center TDC in advance.Therefore, " switching to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1 makes exc. timing ETcls postpone with respect to reference exc. timing ETcls0 " thus be meant that switching to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1 makes exc. timing ETcls be in reference between exc. timing ETcls0 and the exhaust top dead center TDC.
During time period from time point t3 to time point t4, ECU 5 is advanced to exc. timing ETcls with reference to exc. timing ETcls0 shown in the arrow among Fig. 5 A.That is exc. timing ETcls is away from exhaust top dead center TDC, and more approaching with reference to exc. timing ETcls0.Therefore, shown in Fig. 3 (e), internal EGR amount Qegr significantly increased in the time period from time point t3 to time point t4.
After shifting to an earlier date exc. timing ETcls, ECU 5 increases intake valve aperture TA and reduces fuel duty F shown in Fig. 3 (b).Fig. 5 B illustrates with reference to exc. timing ETcls0.Internal EGR amount Qegr increases to gradually with reference to internal EGR amount Qegr0.Thereby, when having suppressed torque ripple, combustion mode can be switched to the HCCI burning from spark ignition combustion.
Fig. 7 is the chart of IMEP (indicated mean effective pressure) that the experimental result of this example, first comparative examples and second comparative examples is shown.IMEP (indicated mean effective pressure) is that hypothesis produces the value that obtains by the average gas pressure that constantly changes under the situation of constant gas pressure in the expansion stroke of hcci engine 1 piston 20 moves to time period of lower dead center from top dead center TDC in.Horizontal axis among Fig. 7 is represented the quantity of burn cycle.In Fig. 7, be the 0th burn cycle with a HCCI cycle sets.
In Fig. 7, represent this example by connecting the solid line of filling circular (●) formation.Represent first comparative examples by connecting the dotted line of filling triangle (▲) formation.Represent second comparative examples by the dotted line that the length that connects filling rhombus (◆) formation replaces.First comparative examples is meant wherein carries out the situation that switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 and switch to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1 from the first air inlet lift amount IL1 simultaneously in HCCI circulation.Second comparative examples is meant such situation: wherein, in HCCI circulation, the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2, and in the 2nd HCCI circulation, the first exhaust lift amount EL1 switches to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 makes exc. timing ETcls become with reference to exc. timing ETcls0.
As shown in Figure 7, the IMEP of this example is smooth.Yet the IMEP of first comparative examples significantly descends in HCCI circulation.The IMEP of second comparative examples significantly descends in the 2nd HCCI circulation.Therefore, compare with first and second comparative examples, this example has obviously suppressed the unexpected variation of moment of torsion.
Present embodiment has following advantage.
(1) before switching to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1, ECU5 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 at time point t1 place with the first air inlet lift amount IL1, makes air inlet open timing ITopn and postpones with respect to exhaust top dead center TDC.Therefore, when combustion mode switches to HCCI when burning from spark ignition combustion, the intake stroke of hcci engine 1 becomes negative pressure by in-cylinder pressure P and begins.This causes air inlet to spray in the firing chamber 10.Correspondingly, the adiabatic compression effect of firing chamber 10 allows the temperature of firing chamber 10 effectively to raise.Thus, carried out the HCCI burning in reliable mode.
In addition, at time point t3 place, ECU 5 switches to the second exhaust lift amount EL2 with the first exhaust lift amount EL1, makes exc. timing ETcls postpone with respect to reference exc. timing ETcls0.Therefore, and then the first exhaust lift amount EL1 switches to after the second exhaust lift amount EL2, and the internal EGR amount Qegr in the firing chamber 10 is less than reference internal EGR amount Qegr0.Can prevent to carry out simultaneously the appearance of the state of spark ignition combustion and HCCI burning.Thereby can prevent abnormal combustion such as premature ignition, and suppress the unexpected variation of moment of torsion.The present invention need be in the stratified-charge combustion between spark ignition combustion and the HCCI burning.This has eliminated the necessity of mechanism complicated and expensive such as the in-cylinder injection system.Maximized the advantage of HCCI burning, that is fuel economy improves and discharging reduces.
(2) in time period from time point t1 to time point t3, ECU 5 control throttle opening TA and fuel duty F.That is, when switching to the second air inlet lift amount IL2 to time point t3 from the first air inlet lift amount IL1 from time point t1 the time, ECU 5 switches to time period inner control intake valve aperture TA and the fuel duty F of the second exhaust lift amount EL2 from the first exhaust lift amount EL1.
Therefore, in the time period from time point t1 to time point t3, TA controls the air inflow that enters in the firing chamber 10 by the control throttle opening.Equally, control the combustion regime of hcci engine 1 by control fuel duty F.Thereby can be when preventing premature ignition and unexpected quenching spark ignition combustion be changed to the HCCI burning.Thus, further be suppressed at the torque ripple of section switching time.
(3) in the time period from time point t1 to time point t3, ECU 5 reduces fuel duty F, increases throttle opening TA simultaneously.Prevent premature ignition and unexpected quenching reliably, and further suppressed torque ripple.
(4) at time point t3 place after the first exhaust lift amount EL1 switches to the second exhaust lift amount EL2, ECU 5 is advanced to exc. timing ETcls with reference to exc. timing ETcls0.Thereby can increase internal EGR amount Qegr gradually.Thereby, when further suppressing torque ripple, combustion mode can be switched to the HCCI burning from spark ignition combustion.
(5) air inlet variable valve actuator for air 11a switches to the low lift cams of air inlet with intake cam 11c from the air inlet high-lift cam.The 12a of exhaust variable valve mechanism switches to the low lift cams of exhaust with exhaust cam 12c from the exhaust high-lift cam.Therefore, different with the variable valve actuation mechanism of complexity such as the Electromagnetic Drive type is that air inlet variable valve actuator for air 11a and the 12a of exhaust variable valve mechanism have simple structure.
Preferred implementation can be carried out following modification.
Shown in the dotted line that the length among Fig. 4 B replaces, and then at time point t1 place after the first air inlet lift amount IL1 switches to the second air inlet lift amount IL2, timing ITopn is opened in air inlet can open timing ITopn0 in advance with respect to the reference air inlet.That is in the time period from time point t1 to time point t3, ECU 5 can open timing ITopn with air inlet and open timing ITopn0 in advance with respect to the reference air inlet in control intake valve aperture TA and fuel duty F.In this case, owing to air inlet is opened timing ITopn with respect to exhaust top dead center TDC delay, so " open timing ITopn0 with respect to the reference air inlet and shift to an earlier date air inlet unlatching timing ITopn " is meant that air inlet unlatching timing ITopn opens timing ITopn0 from the reference air inlet and changes towards exhaust top dead center TDC.
ECU 5 judges whether the unlatching of air inlet in advance timing ITopn based on the operating condition of hcci engine 1 in spark ignition combustion.That is if the burning in the prediction hcci engine 1 smartens when the second air inlet lift amount IL2, then timing ITopn is opened in air inlet in advance.Thus, in the intake stroke of hcci engine 1, the induction air flow ratio that flows into firing chamber 10 from gas-entered passageway 11p reduces.The adiabatic compression effect of firing chamber 10 is suppressed, and makes that the temperature in the firing chamber 10 can excessively not increase.Thus, prevent premature ignition at an easy rate.In the time period from time point t3 to time point t4, ECU 5 opens timing ITopn with air inlet and is delayed to reference to air inlet unlatching timing ITopn0 when being advanced to exc. timing ETcls with reference to exc. timing ETcls0.
Can switch such as the valve lift amount of intake valve 11v and the intake valve characteristic the timing of valve On/Off by electromagnetic drive mechanism.Similarly, can switch such as the valve lift amount of exhaust valve 12v and the exhaust valve characteristic the timing of valve On/Off by electromagnetic drive mechanism.
The second intake valve aperture TA2 can be less than the complete opening state of closure 3.
Air inlet variable valve actuator for air 11a can have the mechanism that is used to change full admission lift amount IL independently and be used to change valve opening/the close mechanism of timing.Similarly, the 12a of exhaust variable valve mechanism can have the mechanism that is used to change maximum exhaust lift amount EL independently and be used to change valve opening/the close mechanism of timing.
When spark ignition combustion switched to the HCCI burning, spark plug 60c can carry out spark ignition auxiliaryly, so that the flameholding of hcci engine 1.ECU 5 can be independent of the running control spark ignition of air inlet variable valve actuator for air 11a and the 12a of exhaust variable valve mechanism.
